[1] We analyze teleseismic P waves from four Mw ≥ 6.5 earthquakes recorded by a petroleum industry survey in Long Beach, California. The survey used a 2-D array with up to 5200 seismometers, 120m mean spacing, and 7 – 10 km aperture. At frequencies near 1Hz, P wave travel times and amplitudes exhibit coherent lateral variations over scales as short as ~400m, including locally delayed travel tim...

As I have argued elsewhere [10], and as summarized in the first two sections below, it turns out to be both logically and semantically revealing to acknowledge the existence of converse, or conversely construed, quantifiers, which mirror their classical, or classically construed, counterparts. In this paper I argue that classically construed quantifiers in their turn mirror their conversely con...

Acute leukemia which is the most common cancer in children is a heterogeneous group of clonal malignancies. The conversion of the leukemic cell lineage during the course of the disease or later is termed lineage switch. It has been rarely reported in the literature. In leukemia lineage switch, conversions from lymphoblastic leukemia to myeloid leukemia or vice versa are reported. Herein, we rep...

It is known that the β-conversions of the full intuitionistic propositional calculus (IPC) translate into βη-conversions of the atomic polymorphic calculus Fat. Since Fat enjoys the property of strong normalization for βη-conversions, an alternative proof of strong normalization for IPC considering β-conversions can be derived. In the present paper we improve the previous result by analyzing th...

This paper describes a series of innovations in the problem of deconvolving forward scattered P-to-S conversions. We introduce a theoretical foundation for a recently developed multichannel stacking technique and show that this process is equivalent to a spatial convolution of the incident wavefield with the discretely sampled set of station locations. We then show that deconvolution of the sta...

Digital audio watermarking robust against digital-to-analog (D/A) and analog-to-digital (A/D) conversions is an important issue. In a number of watermark application scenarios, D/A and A/D conversions are involved. In this article, we first investigate the degradation due to DA/AD conversions via sound cards, which can be decomposed into volume change, additional noise, and time-scale modificat...

Hate speech in the form of racism and sexism is commonplace on the internet (Waseem and Hovy, 2016). For this reason, there has been both an academic and an industry interest in detection of hate speech. The volume of data to be reviewed for creating data sets encourages a use of crowd sourcing for the annotation efforts. In this paper, we provide an examination of the influence of annotator kn...

Deep long-period events (DLP events) or deep low-frequency earthquakes (deep LFEs) are deep earthquakes that radiate low-frequency seismic waves. While tectonic deep LFEs on plate boundaries are thought to be slip events, there have only been a limited number of studies on the physical mechanism of volcanic DLP events around the Moho (crust-mantle boundary) beneath volcanoes. One reasonable mec...
